Frog Leg Inn: The Demise of the Orange Formica Bar

Posted on 15 February 2008 under Restaurant Chit-Chat

For those familiar with the 1970s-era orange Formica bar at the Frog Leg Inn in Erie, Michigan (the bar with the exceedingly-uncomfortable forearm ramp) … as you can see from the above photo it’s no longer there! In its place is a couple inch thickness of this beautiful quartz. The front of the bar, its step and the floor on its platform will also be re-finished to compliment this new surface. Yes, you can finally eat at the bar if you’d like without too much trouble!

    I feel like it is the end of era. I liked it because it was the same color as my parents counter top.

    If Chef Tad is reading the replies, I want to thank Chef Tad for the great meals we had there recently. I would especially like to thank him for accidently selling me beer that wasn’t on the menu, that was some good Bell’s Two Hearted.

    Kevin, Chef Tad reads these entries when he gets the time. They’re having a pretty good week over there though and are rather busy, so you may not see a reply for a day or two.
